The co-Lie structures compatible with the osp(2|2) Lie super algebra structure are investigated and found to be all of coboundary type. The corresponding classical r-matrices are classified into several disjoint families. The osp(1|2)+u(1) Lie super-bialgebras are also classified.
A thorough analysis of Lie super-bialgebra structures on Lie super-algebras osp(1|2) and super-e(2) is presented. Combined technique of computer algebraic computations and a subsequent identification of equivalent structures is applied. In all the cases Poisson-Lie brackets on supergroups are found. Possibility of quantizing them in order to obtain quantum groups is discussed. It turns out to be straightforward for all but one structures for super-E(2) group.
A triangular quantum deformation of $ osp(2/1) $ from the classical $r$-matrix including an odd generator is presented with its full Hopf algebra structure. The deformation maps, twisting element and tensor operators are considered for the deformed $ osp(2/1)$. It is also shown that its subalgebra generated by the Borel subalgebra is self-dual.
We derive from the super RS algebra the Drinfeld basis of the twisted quantum affine superalgebra $U_q[osp(2|2)^{(2)}]$ by means of the Gauss decomposition technique. We explicitly construct a nonclassical level-one representation of $U_q[osp(2|2)^{(2)}]$ in terms of two $q$-deformed free boson fields.
We develop a generic reprersentation-independent contraction procedure for obtaining, for instance, $R_{\sf h}$ and $L$ operators of arbitrary dimensions for the quantized ${\cal U}_{\sf h}(osp(2|1))$ algebra corresponding to the classical $r_2$ matrix from the pertinent quantities of the standard q-deformed ${\cal U}_q(osp(2|1))$ algebra. Also the quantized ${\bf U_h}(osp(2|1))$ algebra corresponding to the classical $r_1$ matrix comprising of the generators of the classical $sl(2)$ algebra is obtained in terms of a nonlinear basis set.
Extending a recently proposed procedure of construction of various elements of diffential geometry on noncommutative algebras, we obtain these structures on noncommutative superalgebras. As an example, a quantum superspace covariant under the action of super-Jordanian $OSp_h(2/1)$ is studied. It is shown that there exist a two paramater family of torsionless connections, and the curvature computed from this family of connections is bilinear. It is also shown that the connections are not compatible with the metric.
In this paper, we extend the generalization of Drinfeld realization of quantum affine algebras to quantum affine superalgebras with its Drinfeld comultiplication and its Hopf algebra structure, which depends on a function $g(z)$ satisfying the relation: $g(z)=g(z^{-1})^{-1}.$ In particular, we present the Drinfeld realization of $U_q(\hat {\frak osp}(1,2))$ and its Serre relations.
Using the corepresentation of the quantum group $ SL_q(2)$ a general method for constructing noncommutative spaces covariant under its coaction is developed. The method allows us to treat the quantum plane and Podleś' quantum spheres in a unified way and to construct higher dimensional noncommutative spaces systematically. Furthermore, we extend the method to the quantum supergroup $ OSp_q(1|2).$ In particular, a one-parameter family of covariant algebras, which may be interpreted as noncommutative superspheres, is constructed.
The recently proposed jordanian quantization of the Lie superalgebra $osp(1|2)$ due to the embedding $sl(2) \subset osp(1|2)$, is extended including odd generators into the twisting element $\cal F$. This deformation is obtained as a contraction of the quantum superalgebra ${\cal U}_{q}(osp(1|2))$.
In this paper, the structure of the parafermion vertex operator algebra associated to an integrable highest weight module for simple affine Lie superalgebra $osp(1|2n)$ is studied. Particularly, we determine the generators for this algebra.
A two-parameter quantum deformation of the affine Lie super algebra $osp(2|2)^{(2)}$ is introduced and studied in some detail. This algebra is the first example associated with nonsimply-laced and twisted root systems of a quantum current algebra with the structure of a so-called infinite Hopf family of (super)algebras. A representation of this algebra at $c=1$ is realized in the product Fock space of two commuting sets of Heisenberg algebras.
Bialgebras and Hopf (bi)modules are typical algebraic structures with several interacting operations. Their structural and homological study is therefore quite involved. We develop the machinery of braided systems, tailored for handling such multi-operation situations. Our construction covers the above examples (as well as Poisson algebras, Yetter--Drinfel$'$d modules, and several other structures, treated in separate publications). In spite of this generality, graphical tools allow an efficient study of braided systems, in particular of their representation and homology theories. These latter…
The character formula of any finite dimensional irreducible module $L_λ$ for Lie superalgebra $\mathfrak{osp}(n|2)$ is computed. As a by-product, the decomposition of tensor module $L_λ\otimes \mathbb{C}^{n|2}$, where $\mathbb{C}^{n|2}$ is the natural representation, is obtained.
The purpose of this paper is to introduce and study super Hom-Gel'fand-Dorfman bialgebras and Hom-Lie conformal superalgebras. In this paper, we provide different ways for constructing super Hom-Gel'fand-Dorfman bialgebras and obtain some infinite-dimensional Hom-Lie superalgebras from affinization of super Hom-Gel'fand-Dorfman bialgebras. Also, we give a general construction of Hom-Lie conformal superalgebras from Hom-Lie superalgebras and establish equivalence of quadratic Hom-Lie conformal superalgebras and super Hom-Gel'fand-Dorfman bialgebras. Finally, we characterize one-dimensional cent…
We explicitly compute the first and second cohomology groups of the classical Lie superalgebras $sl_{m|n}$ and $osp_{2|2n}$ with coefficients in the finite dimensional irreducible modules and the Kac modules. We also show that the second cohomology groups of these Lie superalgebras with coefficients in the respective universal enveloping algebras (under the adjoint action) vanish. The latter result in particular implies that the universal enveloping algebras $U(sl_{m|n})$ and $U(osp_{2|2n})$ do not admit any non-trivial formal deformations of Gerstenhaber type.
We provide an explicit isomorphism between a quotient of the Bannai--Ito algebra and the Brauer algebra. We clarify also the connection with the action of the Lie superalgebra osp(1|2) on the threefold tensor product of its fundamental representation. Finally, a conjecture is proposed to describe the centralizer of osp(1|2) acting on three copies of an arbitrary finite irreducible representation in terms of a quotient of the Bannai-Ito algebra.
We analyse the Witten-Woronowicz's type deformations of the Lie superalgebra osp(2,2) and obtain a deformation parametrized by three independent parameters. For some of these algebras, finite dimensional representations are formulated in terms of a finite difference operator, providing operators that are relevant for the classification of quasi exactly solvable, finite difference equations. Similar representations are also pointed out for the Lie superalgebra osp(1,2).
Triangular deformation of the orthosymplectic Lie superalgebra osp(1|4) is defined by chains of twists. Corresponding classical r-matrix is obtained by a contraction procedure from the trigonometric r-matrix. The carrier space of the constant r-matrix is the Borel subalgebra.
The main purpose of this paper is to study Quantization of color Lie bialgebras, generalizing to color case the approach by Etingof-Kazhdan which were considered for superbialgebras by Geer. Moreover we discuss Drinfeld category, Quantization of Triangular color Lie bialgebras and Simple color Lie bialgebras of Cartan type.
We prove that the family of non-linear $W$-algebras $SW(3/2,2)$ which are extensions of the $N=1$ superconformal algebra by a primary supercurrent of conformal weight $2$ can be realized as a quantum Hamiltonian reduction of the Lie superalgebra $osp(3|2)$. In consequence we obtain an explicit free field realization of the algebra in terms of the screening operators. At central charge $c=12$ the $SW(3/2,2)$ superconformal algebra corresponds to the superconformal algebra associated to sigma models based on eight-dimensional manifolds with special holonomy $Spin(7)$, i.e., the Shatashvili-Vafa …
The Bannai-Ito algebra $B(n)$ of rank $(n-2)$ is defined as the algebra generated by the Casimir operators arising in the $n$-fold tensor product of the $osp(1,2)$ superalgebra. The structure relations are presented and representations in bases determined by maximal Abelian subalgebras are discussed. Comments on realizations as symmetry algebras of physical models are offered.
We present the Drinfel'd realisation of the super Yangian Y(osp(1|2)), including the explicit expression for the coproduct. We show in particular that it is necessary to introduce supplementary Serre relations. The construction of its quantum double is carried out. This allows us to give the universal R-matrix of DY(osp(1|2)).
Using a unified and systematic scheme, the free field realization of irreducible representations of osp(2|2) is constructed. By using these realization, the correlation functions of N=2 super-conformal model based on osp(2|2) symmetry and free field representation of ${\hat{osp(2|2)}}$ generators are calculated. Free field representation of currents are used to determine the stress-energy tensor and the central charge of the model.
The character formula of any finite dimensional irreducible module for Lie superalgebra $\mathfrak{osp}(3|2m)$ is obtained in terms of characters of generalized Verma modules.
We formulate the Bethe Ansatz equations for the open super spin chain based on the super Yangian of osp(M|2n) and with diagonal boundary conditions. We then study the bulk and boundary scattering of the osp(1|2n) open spin chain.
In [ZH], R.B. Zhang found a way to link certain formal deformations of the Lie algebra o(2l+1) and the Lie superalgebra osp(1,2l). The aim of this article is to reformulate the Zhang transformation in the context of the quantum enveloping algebras "à la" Drinfeld-Jimbo and to show how this construction can explain the main theorem of [GL2]: the annihilator of a Verma module over the Lie superalgebra osp(1,2l) is generated by its intersection with the centralizer of the even part of the enveloping algbra.
We introduce a modified quantum enveloping algebra as well as a (modified) covering quantum algebra for the ortho-symplectic Lie superalgebra osp(1|2). Then we formulate and compute the corresponding canonical bases, and relate them to the counterpart for sl(2). This provides a first example of canonical basis for quantum superalgebras.
New convolution identities for orthogonal polynomials belonging to the $q=-1$ analog of the Askey-scheme are obtained. A specialization of the Chihara polynomials will play a central role as the eigenfunctions of a special element of the Lie superalgebra $\mathfrak{osp}(1|2)$ in the positive discrete series representation. Using the Clebsch-Gordan coefficients, a convolution identity for the Specialized Chihara, the dual -1 Hahn and the Big -1 Jacobi polynomials is found. Using the Racah coefficients, a convolution identity for the Big -1 Jacobi and the Bannai-Ito polynomials is found. Finally…
Using the corepresentation of the quantum supergroup OSp_q(1/2) a general method for constructing noncommutative spaces covariant under its coaction is developed. In particular, a one-parameter family of covariant algebras, which may be interpreted as noncommutative superspheres, is constructed. It is observed that embedding of the supersphere in the OSp_q(1/2) algebra is possible. This realization admits infinitesimal characterization a la Koornwinder. A covariant oscillator realization of the supersphere is also presented.
The spaces of invariants and the zonal spherical functions associated with quantum super 2-shpheres defined by $\Bbb{C}_{q}(osp(1,2))$ are discussed. Connection between the zonal spherical functions and orthogonal $q$-polynomials from the Askey-Wilson scheme is investigated.
We describe the Lie bialgebra structure on the Lie superalgebra sl(2,1) related to an r-matrix that cannot be obtained by a Belavin-Drinfeld type construction. This structure makes sl(2,1) into the Drinfeld double of a four-dimensional subalgebra.
We study Yang-Baxter equations with orthosymplectic supersymmetry. We extend a new approach of the construction of the spinor and metaplectic $\hat{\cal R}$-operators with orthogonal and symplectic symmetries to the supersymmetric case of orthosymplectic symmetry. In this approach the orthosymplectic $\hat{\cal R}$-operator is given by the ratio of two operator valued Euler Gamma-functions. We illustrate this approach by calculating such $\hat{\cal R}$ operators in explicit form for special cases of the $osp(n|2m)$ algebra, in particular for a few low-rank cases. We also propose a novel, simpl…
A series invariant for a certain class of closed 3-manifolds associated with a type I Lie superalgebra sl(m|n) was introduced recently. We find a q-series for the other Lie superalgebra of the same type of the minimum rank.
Two descriptions of the dual $-1$ Hahn algebra are presented and shown to be related under Howe duality. The dual pair involved is formed by the Lie algebra $\mathfrak{o}(4)$ and the Lie superalgebra $\mathfrak{osp}(1|2)$.
The integrable structure of the two dimensional superconformal field theory is considered. The classical counterpart of our constructions is based on the $\hat{osp}(1|2)$ super-KdV hierarchy. The quantum version of the monodromy matrix associated with the linear problem for the corresponding L-operator is introduced. Using the explicit form of the irreducible representations of $\hat{osp}_q(1|2)$, the so-called "fusion relations" for the transfer matrices considered in different representations of $\hat{osp}_q(1|2)$ are obtained. The possible integrable perturbations of the model (primary oper…
The equitable presentation of the quantum superalgebra $\mathfrak{osp}_q(1|2)$, in which all generators appear on an equal footing, is exhibited. It is observed that in their equitable presentations, the quantum algebras $\mathfrak{osp}_q(1|2)$ and $\mathfrak{sl}_q(2)$ are related to one another by the formal transformation $q\rightarrow -q$. A $q$-analog of the Bannai-Ito algebra is shown to arise as the covariance algebra of $\mathfrak{osp}_q(1|2)$.
The purpose of this work is to illustrate in a family of interesting examples how to study the representation theory of vertex operator superalgebras by combining the theory of vertex algebra extensions and modular forms. Let $L_k\left(\mathfrak{osp}(1 | 2)\right)$ be the simple affine vertex operator superalgebra of $\mathfrak{osp}(1|2)$ at an admissible level $k$. We use a Jacobi form decomposition to see that this is a vertex operator superalgebra extension of $L_k(\mathfrak{sl}_2)\otimes \text{Vir}(p, (p+p')/2)$ where $k+3/2=p/(2p')$ and $\text{Vir}(u, v)$ denotes the regular Virasoro vert…
